Designyearbook_lowres_resources_2

”A regard for the traditions of design is another recurring theme. Heritage, tradition, regard for the natural world and a clever application of craft – Finland can certainly boast all of these attributes in its design DNA.”
Laura Houseley, design editor

Pointing the way for the field, Finnish Design Yearbook 08–09 is now appearing as the second publication in its series. Design today is facing new challenges. What exactly is design? Who defines it and what are its new areas? Finnish Design Yearbook 08–09 addresses topical issues and presents over 150 new products, current phenomena, designers and companies.

Finnish Design Yearbook 08–09 is an up-to-date overview of Finnish design, with its four themes reflecting the main phenomena of the field. Borderlands investigates interfaces of design, Responsibilities addresses the new ethics of design, Resources charts the role of design in companies, and Playgrounds tells of design as a means of communication and play.

Finnish Design Yearbook 08–09 The theme articles are by design editor Laura Houseley of England, media researcher and author Sam Inkinen, industrial designer Anna Valtonen who is Senior Design Manager at Nokia, Hannu Seristö, professor of international business at the Helsinki School of Economics and Business Administration, CEO Marco Mäkinen of SEK&GREY, and the researcher and non-fiction writer Jari Koskinen.

Finnish Design Yearbook 08–09 is an excellent corporate gift and reference work for design professionals and everyone interested in the subject. The editor-in-chief is design editor Anne Veinola, the graphic design is by dog design and the publisher is Design Forum Finland. The yearbook will be on sale via main domestic and international distribution channels. The previous Finnish Design Yearbook went to over 30 countries, and now the international distribution will expand even further.
